Le Verger is our family home. We named it after the orchard that surrounds it: around thirty olive trees, and young lemon, mandarin and fig trees we planted ourselves.
Matthias grew up on a fruit farm. Work hard, then enjoy life together at a long table outside – that is the spirit we hope you will find here.
